Intimacy and Vulnerability: Sheri and Matt Salis Discuss Emotional Bonds in Recovery

Emotional intimacy is both really difficult (made infinitely harder by alcohol abuse), and also a key to relationship recovery.
Ever wondered how emotional intimacy can survive the storm of addiction? Sheri and Matt Salis tackle this exact topic in episode 154 of the 'Untoxicated Podcast'. This isn't your typical chat about intimacy. The couple separates emotional intimacy from sex, diving into the idea of vulnerability as the ultimate form of closeness. They candidly discuss how alcohol abuse complicates emotional connections and what it takes to rebuild trust and affection in recovery.
Sheri even shares a quirky story about stepping on Matt's unit, adding a touch of humor to the serious subject matter. If you've ever loved an alcoholic or are navigating your own recovery, their conversation offers a mix of personal anecdotes and practical advice. Tune in to explore how defining emotional intimacy beyond physical touch can help nurture deeper bonds and why understanding love languages is crucial for fostering emotional closeness.
